• Always power off the display before cleaning.
• Use a soft, lint-free cloth slightly dampened with water or a non-abrasive screen cleaner.
• Do not spray liquid directly onto the screen.
• Avoid using harsh chemicals, alcohol, or ammonia-based cleaners, as these can damage the screen surface.

6.2. Handling Precautions

• The LCD panel and controller board are delicate components. Handle them with care to avoid physical damage.
• Avoid applying excessive pressure to the screen surface.
• Keep the components away from direct sunlight, high temperatures, and high humidity.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your VSDISPLAY LCD screen, refer to the following troubleshooting tips.

7.1. No Display / Black Screen

• Ensure all cables (power and signal) are securely connected.
• Verify that the power source is active and providing sufficient power.
• Check the video output settings on your source device (PC, etc.) to ensure it is configured to output to the connected display.
• Try restarting both the display and the source device.

7.2. USB-C Input Issues

If the display does not automatically show content when connected via USB-C:

• Ensure your USB-C cable supports video output (DisplayPort Alternate Mode). Not all USB-C cables are identical.
• Check your source device's display settings to ensure the USB-C port is enabled for video output.

7.3. Incorrect Resolution or Aspect Ratio

• Access your source device's display settings and set the resolution to 2560x720.
• If the display is not full screen, adjust the refresh rate. Some systems may require setting the refresh rate to 56.89Hz instead of 60Hz for proper scaling.

7.4. OSD Menu Not Responding

• Ensure the keyboard cable is securely connected to the controller board.
• Check for any physical damage to the keyboard or cable.
